Detailed description
The Drive Manual Fold Plus Folding Scooter is a redesigned version of the original Flex with a number of added features. It is designed to be lightweight at 19.8 kg, making it easier to lift, carry and store than many conventional scooters. The scooter folds down to a compact size so it can be kept at home, where space is limited or placed in the boot of a car for transport.
Comfort is improved with an extra-padded seat and backrest. The seat is designed to provide a supportive surface for everyday use. Fold-up armrests help with side transfers, giving space as needed when getting on or off the scooter.
The tiller can be height and angle adjusted so the driving position can be personalised. This helps users find a comfortable posture for steering and braking. Controls remain within easy reach once the tiller is adjusted to the desired position.
Power is supplied by an airline-friendly 25.2V 10Ah lithium-ion battery. The scooter offers a top speed of 4 mph and a maximum range of approximately 9.3 miles (15 km) on a full charge. The battery is designed for portability but users should follow the manufacturer’s guidance for charging, storage and travel with lithium batteries.
Safety and stability have been considered in the design. The scooter includes rear anti-tip wheels for extra reassurance on gentle slopes and uneven surfaces. It rides on solid puncture-proof tyres, which removes the need to check and maintain air pressure.
The folding mechanism is straightforward, and the seat base includes a handy grab handle to help lift or carry the folded scooter. When folded, the scooter’s compact dimensions make it suitable for storage in smaller areas and convenient for car boot transport.
